Tho cargo of the Kadosh is not yet sold, and this has the effect of depressing prices. Besides this, the Mary Miller is ordered up from Melbourne ; and this together with th% late news from California, lately published, has induced buyers to be very cautious in their operations. Adelaide is still scarce, and first brands quotedat £25 to £28 ; Chilian, £20 to £21; Californian, £22. Wheat continues the same as last week. Adelaide, 9s 6d; Chilian and Californian Ba6dtoßs9d. Liquids.—Ale, in bulk, is firm. Bottled ale and porter hare advanced in price, in consequence of the increased duty.
